Few weeks ago some were saying when 'hard luck' MHQ cases starting coming out, 'It's tough but those are the rules, suck it up etc', and now weeks later and plenty of people released because of fear of courts, it's 'It's not perfect but....'

The fluidity of opinion just to be defending something is quite funny at times. Verbal contortion.

I don't get your point.

Your opinion should be fluid. It should be open to change.

I remember a few weeks ago the Government were asked to clarify the MHQ by the EU.
I think there was 10 days to reply which we would be past now.
What ever became of that....

I presume Ireland made the point that France put a complete stop on travel from Ireland back in December/January so the EU were told to f**k themselves

Really nothing to see. People can appeal.

I think the Mandatory Hotel Quarantine is an absolute sick joke, it effected it me personally in that it highly effected my travel plans. Thanks to our open land border with Northern Ireland I am now back in Ireland with the past two weeks having returned from 3 red list countries. It is pretty easy to avoid MHQ if you are travel savvy and have as much travel experience as myself.

"Travel savvy", "As much travel experience as myself"...in that you had heard of northern Ireland and our open border with same?

I was not aware that any country in EU had a complete ban on travel from another country.
I just thought we had to tick the requirements on arrival.
Personally i think the EU should have laid some kindof direction for Europe travel....

Do you have a link to the French ban on travel from Ireland?

It wasn't a secret. Surely you remember this case?

‘Non-essential’. So they weren’t preventing people from travelling with an essential reason or imposing a quarantine?

Of course not. Don't think any country within the eu went that as far as completely stopping travel completely.

So Red Silurian was talking nonsense in his comment as I thought.

Please use the whole sentence that I said. I don't mind disagreeing with me, but don't partially quote me to attempt to prove a point.

Please take back that accusation. I quoted your entire paragraph so I have in no way manipulated your words.

No wonder they brought in MHQ but it wasn't enough in your case. I hope you didn't bring any presents back for the rest of us.

You used half of my sentence when you gave your opinion on it. If you didn't understand it or don't bother to understand it fine, but don't use half of what I said to make it seem like it's a point. All of the sentence or none of it.

I tested negative, I protect my family and that is where I stop caring, we are not all in this together, I don't give a damn about anyone else or anything else, Covid19 killed off empathy for me.

Ah here, if we all had that attitude you'd be dead already and not from covid. No need to abandon all empathy!

Just love this part

“Sources reported that the group made attempts to utilize some connections, making a few phone calls in hopes of bypassing authorities. However, this was unsuccessful.”

If that was this country it would be a quick call to Leo or Michael and sure t’would be grand!

I traveled to France in January. I wasn't stopped or even queried.

The French ban was in April 2020 afsik. France has since revised that. Other countries have done similar. Spain banned people travelling for non essential reasons from the UK & snce revised. Germany banned those travelling from Ireland in Jan 2021 - Since revised. Many countries have closed down travel from India. The list goes on.

Not at anyone here and leaving aside the need for genuinene travel. But I love the me me me dynamic of self entitled travel during a global pandemic inhabiting social media atm.

Or just maybe Garda resources should be spent on real social issues such as this?
